ALONGSIDE introductions to its Stainfree and Love Story British-made carpets, Abingdon Flooring has launched the Simply Smooth collection of cushion vinyl, luxury vinyl and laminate floors.

Retailers making the trip to The Flooring Show got the chance to see the latest products to come from Abingdon Flooring as it used the three-days of the UK’s largest flooring exhibition to show new carpets from Stainfree and Love Story, as well as mark its entry into new markets with the launch of Simply Smooth vinyl, luxury vinyl and laminate floors.

Says the company, ‘For the nation’s original easy clean carpet family, Stainfree, Abingdon Flooring has released Rustique Ultra. Complementing the successful Rustique style, this brand-new range uses a tri-colour yarn and a dense 1/10th gauge for better performance in areas of the home that see heavy traffic.

‘New Rustique Ultra comes in 16 popular colours and features Abingdon Flooring’s original and best Stainfree for Life warranty alongside a 10-year wear warranty. Complete with Abingdon’s comfort fleece back, the collection is available in 2.5-, 4- and 5m widths.’

Continues Abingdon, ‘Continuing the legacy of Love Story’s ultra-soft carpets, we also see two new styles enter the collection in Soft Whisper and Hidden Depths. Taking inspiration from the Destiny roll range, both are soft to the touch and perform well in high-traffic areas of the home.

‘With a yarn that bounces back time after time and a fleece backing for easier fitting and improved feel, Soft Whisper and Hidden Depths come with a Stainfree for Life promise and 10-year wear warranty. Homeowners can choose from a mix of 14 heathered and plain tones in 2.5-, 4- and 5m widths.’

Adds the company, ‘Alongside the excitement surrounding these excellent additions to Abingdon Flooring’s range of British-made carpets, there’s a noticeable buzz for the launch of Simply Smooth, which includes the company’s venture into luxury vinyl and laminate, as well as new cushion vinyl styles.’

Continues Abingdon, ‘Upholding Abingdon Flooring’s reputation for great value products that deliver serious style, Simply Smooth will open up new opportunity for retailers across the UK. Artisan and Eminence LVT collections come in six warm wood colours in click and dryback specifications.

‘Eminence is a versatile plank design, while Artisan is a trending herringbone range. Both feature a durable 0.55mm wear later with an Authentic Embossed finish for a natural look and feel and are backed by a 15-year residential warranty for complete peace of mind. For its laminate collections, which are made here in the UK, Abingdon Flooring has released the 8mm Prestige and 12mm Exquisite.

‘Prestige laminate is available in 12 wood effects, including natural and grey toned oaks as well as the rich dark roast walnut. Featuring an AC4 abrasion rating, the floor is suitable for use in living spaces and hallways, with a four-sided bevel that adds definition to its versatile 1288 x 195mm planks. Prestige comes with a 15-year residential guarantee.’

Says the company, ‘For homeowners wanting premium laminate floors, the AC5 rated Exquisite range comes with 48-hour water protection, so it can be confidently used in bathrooms and kitchens. It also features Pro-Tec floor protection for improved scratch and stain resistance, making it suitable for busy family homes. In 10 authentic wood colours, Exquisite shares the same versatile plank size as Prestige. It enters the market with an impressive and reassuring 30-year residential guarantee.

‘Rounding out the Simply Smooth launch are two highly affordable cushion vinyl collections, Urban and Endurance. Bringing a natural look to homes that need an easy to look after floor that’s extraordinary value, Urban comes in eight stylish designs, including herringbone and a smart stone tile.

‘Endurance delivers an improved specification and impressive levels of comfort thanks to its 4mm thickness and premium cushion backing. Endurance comes in eight wood and tile designs, including a choice of three herringbone colours.’
